Actual uncut, unedited treatment of a vitreous eye floater as seen through the laser microscope. This video is narrated in real time by Dr. Johnson during the treatment. THIS VIDEO IS A MUST-SEE FOR ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN TOLD THAT FLOATERS CAN NOT OR SHOULD NOT BE TREATED. The choice is yours: live with it or do something about it. Notes: Dr. James H. Johnson is an ophthalmologist practicing in the State of California. He is medical director and founder of VITREOUS FLOATER SOLUTIONS ( http://VitreousFloaterSolutions.com ) which is the worlds only medical practice exclusively treating vitreous eye floaters and other degenerative vitreous conditions. The treatment shown in this video is fairly typical for this particular type of floater (Weiss ring associated with a posterior vitreous detachment ), but may not be representative for the many other types of floater conditions. Our web site is an extensive source of further information on the treatment options for eye floaters.

  • Seems like an awfully risky procedure to me

  • @dougconley ..based on what?

  • @dougconley You would think that if it were an awfully risky procedure, there would would be devastating stories of treatments gone bad all over the internet... and lawsuits. Unless, of course, there is a vast worldwide conspiracy to cover up any negative comments and press.

  • ok i really studied your page now. i have "crystal worms" in my right eye. But one floater is really weird. the end of it is like blurry. Cant explain really. On my left eye i have a black-grey cloud. Now I am 15 years old. But when i visited my doctor more then a year ago he said the black-grey cloud was visible for him. Now i just need to make sure its far enough from the retina right? and how can i found out if my crystal worms are treatable? Thank you doctor.

  • @UltraGamer457 The vitreous cortex material described at 9:42 is not particularly treatable. Like trying to get rid of a piece of paper with a hole punch. Not very efficient. I also wouldn't be to hopeful or optimistic as to the prospects of treating someone who is 15 years old. I think the likelihood for having a treatable floater type or group is unlikely.

  • This is a great video, it restores some faith in one day I'll be able to enjoy a nice summer day again one of lifes simplest but greatest pleasures..

    Dr Johnson I roughly around 6 months ago developed floaters in my left eye which over time have become seemingly worse I now notice an ocotopus like shape that comes across my field of vision every single day & am now noticing small ones in my right eye! Which is how my left started.

  • This is rather relaxing video :) I have asmr. Love this vid

  • @VitreousFloaterSolns I would assume based on having a laser shot into your eyeball.

  • Die damn floaters !!!

  • I HOPE ONE DAY SEE YOU AND YOU TREAT BOTH OF MY EYES FLOATERS.

    THANKS SO MUCH DOCTOR
